Hello New here :) Sewing machine???

Just joined a little while ago so hello to all on here. I love sewing and making things. I'm always thinking or making something. At this point in time I have a 'New home' Janome sewing machine, which is great. However, I am starting to do more actual 'quilting' and 'embroidery' aswell as the actual patchwork and I' looking for tips on a new sewing machine. I've looked at one called a Pfaff but there are so many. Does anyone know of one particular one that covers quilting, embroidery etc. My price range is around $£600 give or take.

So the one thing we have recommended to everyone is to "test drive" machines at the shop in the price range you want to buy. Machines vary so greatly and there's no replacement for testing it out to make sure it works as you expect.

I have a Janome myself and I'm very happy with it. It free motion quilts beautifully. I do not have any embroidery attachments, as I don't do that myself.

I have a Pfaff. It is the Creative 7550 model, almost 20 yrs old. I would not trade it for anything. It is a fantastic machine, and a real workhorse. It can handle everything I throw at it, including quilting big projects. Just some thoughts from a very happy sewing enthusiast.

My mom loves sewing and quilting. I bought her a good quality machine on her 50th birthday. She was very happy because she is now able to sew faster. But before i bought the new quilting sewing machine, i reviewed some of the best brands. :). it turned out good anyways.
